New Yankee Stadium is a BANDBOX!!!

Is anyone watching this Boston-NY game? There's already been 5 HR's combined and its only the bottom of the 4th. Jorge Posada is already 1 triple short of a cycle and none of these HR's have seemingly been crushed or well hit balls. The ball just carries from CF to RF way too easily. It's like watching a video game. This is the biggest launching pad I've seen since the opening of Coors Field.

I don’t know what you’re talking about, dude. I was listening to the game at work, and according to John Sterling, every one of those Yankee homeruns were hit at least 700 feet.

I thought this was determined already after the first series of the year?

Should have raised ticket prices higher to bring in a scientist before this was built.

By the way, poor John Smoltz.

Bruce Bochy would like you to look at the career numbers and stop complaining.

Whoa.

Brian Sabean strongly encourages you to disregard the drudgery of your employment responsibilities and join him in the consumption of spirituous libations.

Ummm

ESPN’s poll question: “What’s the weekend’s best series not involving the Red Sox and Yankees?”…

Yeah, um, I’m used to the bias, but that’s ridiculous.

Insanity is just a state of mind.

Although since Giants-Dodgers isn’t until after the weekend, really, that’s all they’ve got.

/my bias is better than theirs

Will this mean that ARod gets a double asterisk? Or has this already been proposed?
